Important Notice
The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software,
purely for historical purposes.
If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming,
you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully
out of date.
TABLESEGCROSS Details (↑ Choosing Run-time Behavior)
◄Key► ◄Summary► ◄Up► ◄Contents► ◄Index► ◄Back►
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
TABLESEGCROSS must be specified in a program that defines a table as
being smaller than 64K, but references beyond the end of the table,
across a 64K segment boundary. This technique is commonly used in
OSVS COBOL programs where the maximum size of a 01-level item is 32K.
TABLESEGCROSS is ignored if you have enabled bound-checking, by
specifying either BOUND or CHECK.
Specifying TABLESEGCROSS makes the code produced for your program
much less efficient. For smaller and faster code you should not
specify TABLESEGCROSS.
